Pet Insurance

South Arbor Animal Hospital recommends pet insurance.

We want the best in medical care for our pets, but sometimes bills can be expensive. Be prepared for the unexpected by purchasing pet insurance, and rest assured that your dog or cat will always receive optimal treatment in the unfortunate case of an accident or emergency.

Veterinary insurance plans function in the same manner as human health insurance policies. The policy holder pays a small amount of money monthly for coverage, and the agency provides reimbursement for claims filed. This eliminates the need for placing veterinary bills on credit cards or worrying about having large amounts set aside in savings. Surgeries and treatments for chronic conditions in cases can cost upwards of a thousand dollars, so choosing to start a policy early in your pet’s life is beneficial. Plans also do not cover pre-existing conditions.

We encourage you to explore your options and decide if pet insurance is right for you and your furry companion. Please visit The Insured Pet at https://www.theinsuredpet.com/ for information.
